After spending a full day of sightseeing and snacking at various eateries in Vancouver, it was time for a good Chinese dinner and trek back to Seattle. We were quickly seated and provided menus....we received ones which were predominately in Chinese. After a short struggle to translate, we asked the waitress for the English version . We ordered the beef brisket w tendons and radish, salt n pepper pork chops and stir fry ling cod w gai lan. Each dish came out HOT and was "ho sic"....delicious! A definite FIVE star restaurant read more

Daikon - Great quality but flavor is lacking Beef chow fun - It's got wok air, a bit more soy sauce would be better. I also noticed many pieces are not "colored" means it didn't toss enough to make sure it's evenly flavored. Sweet and sour pork - it lacks the crispy battered which is what made HK style sweet and sour pork good. Flavor is good though. 胡椒豬肚湯 - it's actually pretty good. Lots of 豬肚. read more

Located inside the Empire Plaza, it's one of those places where you crave congee. The fish maw and dried scallop congee is our top choice with the chinese donut. They always have the lobster with noodles special but the lobster is very small. We tried the clams and xo radish cake this time. My son likes the chicken wings but doesn't recommend their cream pasta. Stick to the Asian food here. read more

I ordered based on the reviews and it was a let down. The XO radish cake was piping hot but lacked XO and was soggy. The beef brisket noodles was flavoursome but didn't have enough meat to noodle ratio. Service is quick which is great but overall this visit was a miss. read more

I didn't choose the Cantonese comfort food life--the Cantonese comfort food life chose me. And it found me at Double Double in Vancouver, where I stumbled in and discovered a little slice of Hong Kong heaven. Let's be real: it's not a true Cantonese restaurant unless it's loud, bustling, and full of people chatting away--and Double Double nailed that vibe perfectly. From the comforting congee loaded with pork blood, liver, and gizzards (because why settle for just one innard?) to the egg yolk fried shrimp that proves everything is better with a little egg yolk magic, every dish was a winner. And let's face it, Cantonese food never goes wrong when you're diving into roast duck, char siu, or those honey-glazed ribs that practically sing to your taste buds. Prices were kind on the wallet, and the service was just as warm as the food. So if you find yourself in BC craving that legit Hong Kong flavor, Double Double's got you covered. I'm already plotting my next visit. After all, I didn't choose the Cantonese comfort food life; it chose me--and now I'm basically Cantonese foodie for life. Thug life? More like dim sum life! read more

We had to wait for a bit. The waitresses were friendly and gave us a heads up that food would be about 45 minutes but there were faster options. We ordered the salt n pepper lobster special that came with eggplants. They were very delicious. The lobster was so tiny though. We also enjoyed the salt n pepper tofu. read more

We came shortly after they opened as we had to get to the airport for an afternoon flight. They filled up quickly as this place is always busy from morning to late afternoon. The service was limited but fast and efficient. You just have to be assertive and wave someone down when you're ready to order or get the bill. The Congee was great as usual. This is the place we go to when we are craving congee and we're too lazy to make it at home lol. The XO lo bak gao is a hit or miss here. This last visit was definitely a hit! It was done perfectly with a soft interior and chrisp exterior - paired with their table chili oil and it tastes amazing. The wonton weren't goid this time around because of the soggy bottom. We wanted to get the ow lay so but it wasn't ready yet and we had to get going. We were glad we didn't get it since this was plenty of food for the four of us. read more

老油條為老豆 "Old Oil Stripe for the Old Bean" Sounds almost like a menu item doesn't it? I had to choose carefully, because the old bean has his peculiarities. Meaning the only Chinese food he likes is Canto. Nothing. Else. No Northern, no Taiwanese, no spicy Chongqing, no other areas outside of GZ. He's a strange one. He didn't complain much. As long as the flavours don't stray too far from his norm, he's happy. I've been here a couple of times and I find the food to be a bit heavy on the MSG, my personal nemesis. It depends on what you order if you need a hit. I don't mind it here. Old Bean likes it. I can definitely see the appeal. Prices are reasonable, and there's typically a line up out the door during the rush. Recommend you come here off hours so you don't have to wait. Service can be hit or miss. Cash/debit only. 老闆 here must like soccer. Lots of trophies displayed in the upper shelf along the ceiling. read more

We came on a Saturday and there were a lot of people waiting. We waited around 15-20 minutes for a table. As turnover is so fast they don't have enough time to clean the tables. It feels a bit sticky inside We ordered fish and peanuts congee ($9.50), fish maw and sea slug congee ($13.95), salty chinese Donut ($3.95), wonton ($12.95), crispy fish lo me (13.80) and sweet chinese Donut (3.95) The fish and peanut congee had lots of peanut inside. One bowl is around 4 small bowls of congee. Lots of ingredients inside. Their congee is very smooth and the rice grains have almost disappeared. The salty chinese Donut and the sweet chinese Donut are both either over fried or the oil is old. Both of these were too dark. The salty chinese Donut was crispy but didn't taste fresh. Would not get these again The other fish maw congee we got did not actually have fish maw in it. It was actually fish stomach. But it was still not bad The highlight here is ALWAYS the fried shrimp wonton. They have the best fried wonton. They are fried perfectly crispy and fresh the shrimp is just cooked and super crunchy. Perfectly seasoned and that sweet and sour sauce they provide gives it that perfect sweetness. If I could I would come here and just order this one dish. The lo men was meh. Very dry (i know its a dry noodle but still too dry). Noodle wasn't chewy enough. The flavour wasn't what I was looking for (if you know what I mean). It was lacking that extra something something. Wouldn't recommend Overall service was non existent. Only one lady could take orders it seems. Food came out super fast and super hot. Definitely get the fried wonton. Skip the deep fried donuts. Congee is not bad read more

Feel like having some rice porridge on a cold day...so we went to Double Double not just for the粥 also for their steamed rice rolls (滑腸粉). we shared a pork liver+fish porridge, plate of deep fried tiny silver fishes, steamed rice rolls and a long doughnut. The place was hopping on a weekday noon time, table quite close together but the food is good value and everything cooked properly. Certainly not for leisurely dining, more like get fed and get out type of place; waitstaff friendly and efficient. I think it's Cash only for pymt and no receipt! read more

Double Double is one of my favourite restaurants in Richmond for tummy warming Chinese comfort food. The Watercress & Sliced Basa Congee, and some Chinese Donuts are very often what we end up ordering. We ordered those items as per usual on this visit; however, we also tried a couple of new dishes: Fresh Oyster Congee and the Salt & Pepper Squid, Lotus, Eggplant Watercress & Sliced Basa Congee Fresh Oyster Congee Salted Chinese Donut Sweet Chinese Donut Crispy Veg Spring Roll Salt & Pepper Squid, Lotus, Eggplant Fresh Oyster Congee was so good! Watercress & Sliced Basa Congee is our "usual" but Fresh Oyster Congee just might be a new "usual" for us from now on! The Salt & Pepper Squid, Lotus, Eggplant dish was also superb! It was basically like a tempura dish; there wasn't too much batter on the food and it didn't feel very greasy either. Another new favourite of ours on the Double Double menu!

I came here with my family while on vacation in Vancouver. It was still pretty busy around 2pm on a weekday, and you could tell why as the food was amazing (especially since we don't have many Chinese restaurants back in San Diego). I had the prawn wonton noodle soup which was delicious, and the wontons were filled with shrimp. We also ordered minced beef congee which is the best congee I think I've ever had, and a stir fry vegetable which was also good. We also ordered the Chinese donut which was very good, it was a little different than the ones I've had in Taiwan but in a good way (less oily). The rice roll was also really good, I normally don't like the texture but I liked this one and the sauce on top. The service was a bit slow as it was so busy, we had to ask a few times for a fruit juice I ordered and the restaurant felt a bit hot/stuffy, but other than that I would definitely recommend coming here. The prices were also very reasonable (especially compared to California). read more

MSG MSG MSG MSG All foods contain msg so just be aware. Order lobster 4 dish set and lobster was minions ripped off customers. Not enough sauce for the noodle. Seems the cook doesn't know how to cook. No lobster cracker tools given, what a shame. Other dish portion size was small and cheap out. Chinese donuts was using recycle oil fried. Burned taste. Dreadful, unprofessional. The cook needs retrained. Fish was blend, no proper sauce provide. Service was bad, we have to ask for tea. Or change plates for scraps. Overall not recommend, the food just not up to par. Not worth spend money here anyway. There's other places makes better food with more reasonable price. read more

I bookmarked this place after a small YouTube channel raved about the XO turnip cake, saying it's better than Alice's Kitchen in Monterey Park. Admittedly when I tried Alice's I had no access to HK cuisine so I loved Alice's and hence had to give this place a go. The XO turnip cake seems really popular given all the photos of it here on Yelp. Alas, it did not hold up to the high praise, it was not to my taste. On the plus side it is crispy. On the down side, there is barely any XO flavour, when you eat it (without bean sprout) still all you can taste is bean sprout. There is not a lot of lap cheong in the turnip cake and I don't think there was any dried shrimp. There are so many pictures of zha leung on here too and I presume by their name they are known for chinese donut so I got a half order. I feel like day+ old donut was used, like it was refried at some point. Really crispy inside. Rice roll OK. We got a sweet donut (#2) to try and it was a surprise treat. It goes well with hot soy milk. Lastly, ordered crispy sweet and sour fish. It isn't crispy at all. It was really hot, so I would think it was recently fried and not been sitting around waiting, getting soggy from the sauce. But none were crispy. Meat was flaky though. If you can say the name of your dishes in Mandarin or Cantonese, then you will be fine. I couldn't for some of my dishes, so I had a bit of trouble. There are waitstaff that speak English but the person who took our order doesn't really. We pointed to menu items and said their English name. They read back the order and it sounded like they said the cantonese name for salt and pepper fish, so I repeated and repointed to sweet and sour fish, at which point they kinda raised their voice in Cantonese saying I asked for [dish name I don't know]. The table next to us only spoke Mandarin or English, he tried to order by saying the item number in Mandarin, but the same waitstaff didn't know and asked him in Cantonese what it was. He said the name in Mandarin and it worked out. Cash or debit only. There is 90 min free parking in the lot, I think longer duration in the parkade. read more

I went here with my family on July9th. Heard this place was good via Yelp so we decided to dine here for breakfast. We waited from 10AM waiting until 10:15, the staff let us in even though the opening time was a bit early. We had Steamed Rice Roll with Mixed Sauce ($5.95), Seafood Congee ($10.95 bowl) and Fish Maw Congee with Dry Scallop ($12.50 bowl) were pretty good. We enjoyed all the food on the order. Fried donut was part of our order, but the staff was too busy she forgot to serve it. Double Double was pretty impressive. Donuts were house made and congee was packed with flavours. It was a bit watery, but there was so much flavour in the soup. I can see this place is worth lining up for. Price was reasonable. read more

It's a true Cantonese place! We were there on a Sunday night for dinner and the place was packed! They're famous for their fried dough, very crunchy on the outside and soft inside! We had the preserved egg & salty pork congee (it was very creamy, really didn't taste like regular congee I had before)! We also had the beef brisket rice noodle, wonton noodles, XO chicken and Chinese veggies! All the dishes were very delicious and tasty! I didn't like the XO chicken, it was a cold dish, it probably would've been better if it was hot! It was really noisy and crazy here! read more

Wish they had served them right after frying so they're crispy. 牛杂三堡 aBeef brisket, tripe with radish: Flavor is really good and beef was done pretty well. Seafood Congee: super creamy and delicious. HK Style Minced Beef Congee: flavor is not as good as the seafood one. Salted Egg Shrimp: a bit too salty, overall very okay. read more

=== 1. VERDICT/VALUE In a town where good Chinese eats have gone up in price so much, Double Double is going to bring you happiness as they're on the lower end of the price spectrum yet bring you the taste and fast service! === 2. FOOD - Fried Rice Noodle with Chicken ($15.50): tender pieces of chicken and bean sprouts mixed in with rice noodles that are thinner than usual, but man they are good, like fresh-made good! - Salty Chinese Donut ($3.20): the rumours are true: it's crispy, tastes just right, and brings back memories of authentic Chinese donuts in Hong Kong / China! - BBQ Pork Rice Roll ($6.50): the filling is great, the roll itself good texture-wise in the Cantonese-style of rice roll. If only there was a lighter soya sauce... === 3. SERVICE I managed well enough in English (and they were great towards my toddler!), but I heard it seemingly go well enough in Cantonese and Mandarin. Despite being packed in-house and steadily busy for takeout orders, they were relatively quick. === 4. ENVIRONMENT It looks like it was built 20 years ago, but it's bright and fits more people that one might expect, fitting groups 2 to 12 in size. Wheelchairs and baby strollers...might be best left at home if possible given what might be a tight squeeze between tables. Parking is also tight outside in the constantly-busy shopping complex lot outside; thank goodness for the parkade on the Hazelbridge side of the complex! read more

Visited Double Double due to a recommendation from a friend and it certainly did not disappoint. Our table was quickly seated within a few minutes and the vibes gave your typical bustling Chinese restaurant. The staff definitely reciprocated better when communicated to in Cantonese or Mandarin instead of English. There was a wide variety of Congee, what I mainly came for. I ordered the Preserved Egg & Salted Pork Congee as well as a Salted Chinese Doughnut. The congee was wonderfully silky and contained a good ratio of toppings to congee. This congee was some of the best that I've had in North America and was super reminiscent of a piping hot bowl of congee from Hong Kong. The Chinese doughnut was pretty big and was shared amongst four people. It was airy, nicely fluffy, and paired perfectly with the congee! read more

Always love coming here. Comfort food at its finest. This place is almost always busy in the mornings/early afternoons and especially on weekends, so be prepared to wait. The parking lot is a guaranteed gong show no matter what time you go, but the wait and frustration are well worth it. You even get the full experience with the waitresses sometimes rushing you and even "yelling" at you. Not a sarcastic post, honestly cannot recommend coming here enough. Make sure you drizzle their chilli oil on everything. It's not spicy and highly addicting. Must gets: #1. Salted Chinese donut - $3.50 #2. Sweet Chinese donut - $3.50 #5. Wok-fried radish cake with XO sauce - $12.50 read more

The inside of the restaurant was drab but it's full at 11am on a Wednesday. Obviously, it's comfort food for many. We probably ordered the wrong items for this place but we craved congee and wonton soup so that's what we ordered. It's expensive for the quality and quantity of the food we ordered. We paid $12 for a wonton and dumpling soup with only 3 dumplings and 3 wontons, and without noodles. It was sooo bland. And $11 for the Hong Kong style Sampan congee which was also bland and the portion was small. Not a great experience. Service was not bad but definitely not great. Like our table was sticky and the condiment containers were dirty. Worst part of it was they asked me if I wanted change for the $50 I gave them for our bill of $23! Hello! read more

After seeing mixed reviews here, I was hesitant to try this spot out but boy I was impressed. There was a line and a bit of a wait when I arrived around 11:30 am but I was seated fairly quickly. I ordered the sweet youtiao, rice rolls with youtiao, bbq pork and sausage rice rolls, and the congee with fish maw, scallops, and sea cucumber. Everything I tried was so good. I have the biggest sweet tooth so I did enjoy the sweet youtiao, very fluffy and soft which is a different experience for me. It reminded me of a lot of the pastry options at Chinese bakeries. The rice roll with youtiao was also so pleasing; a good variety of sauces to dip them in. The bbq pork and sausage rice roll was by far my favorite item here, as the pork had such a strong juicy flavor that went well with the rice noodles. Quite the flavor explosion. Finally, the congee was the right consistency and the fish maw and scallops tasted great and had a nice soft texture. I love seafood so that's always a plus. Next time I want to try their lo mein with lobster! In addition to how good the food was, the vibes here also point to a very authentic experience: busy, hectic, crowded and loud communication. Sounds stressful but it does give off a familiar refreshing vibe. Also they are cash and debit only! read more

Such a busy restaurant in richmond, you know it's good when you gotta wait for that table and they are also super busy with take out orders Came for that double double rice roll it's the Chinese donut wrapped in rice roll but only got a single one because we got lots of food. The congee here is more watered down like it's very thin but still good, would like it more if it was thicker. The deep fried silver fish was quite huge! I don't know where they found such huge fishes lol never had seen them that big before, it was super crunchy like they super deep fried it. It was like eating chips Then the clay pot with beef brisket, tendon and rice rolls was really good. read more

QUALITY OF FOOD (5/5) I loved every bite! My mom used to order take out from this restaurant back when I was still in elementary/high school. 12-13 years ago. It's nice to experience that same quality in taste I felt many years ago. Signature congee and sweet donut and buns are still top notch. Excited to try the other dishes. QUALITY OF SERVICE (4/5) * Friendliness of Staff (4.5/5) * Attentiveness/Speed (4/5) I was seated with no menu and left alone for 5 minutes before tea and cutlery arrived during my visit but that was expected given how busy they were, how long the line-up was and the table full of Fantuan delivery orders and pick-ups. That said, when the staff noticed me without a menu, they immediately apologized. They were very nice and continued to be friendly until the end. CLEANLINESS OF RESTAURANT (5/5) The restaurant was very clean. They were very busy but I saw a few staff still manage to find time to clean. RESTAURANT APPEARANCE/AMBIENCE (5/5) Very old vibes but at the same time extremely cozy. VALUE OF MONEY (5/5) Honestly, the price for the food is fantastic compared to the average nowadays and still continues to rise in many other restaurants that serve the same/similar food.

We came here for their famous fried radish cake and rice noodle rolls, but end up getting the lobster noodle. Just cause the promotional poster made it look so attractive.  Was it good? Yes. Was it good bang for the buck? Meh....  Double double is one of those "dai pai dong" places that comes up with dishes to hit your specific cravings, and then make you crave for those same things again next week. Whether its deep fried, greasy , or savory cravings, hey have dishes that are uniquely made to hit that spot. While we were waiting by the door for a seat, and contemplating on what else to get, our attention got drawn to the lobster poster. So we bailed out on the original carb heavy ideas.  It was a relatively small lobster, with a couple good pieces. It was fresh tasting and flavourful, the lobster does have the natural sweetness to the meat, which is great. and it's got just enough sauce to drench the noodles- just the way it should be. We were hoping that this $38 lobster plate meal would fill up 2 people. But unfortunately, we were both just about 60% full. Overall, we enjoyed the experience, but not likely to be back to order the same thing again. I would say that unless you are planning to splurge and order one plate of these lobsters per person, you can probably order other other dishes that are more satisfying even at this same restaurant.  Food 8/10  Service 7/10  Ambiance 7/10  Value 7/10 read more

Double Double re-upped Last visit: Feb 28, 2019 Last Sept, the Mrs wanted to try a local hidden gem, the highly rated HK style "Double Double Restaurant & Wonton" First, this isn't Michelin dining; just budget friendly Chinese food. But the quality of food that arrived exceeded expectations; both quality & quantity. We started with the Chinese doughnut in rice noodle (crispy donut in rice noodle)... Crispy, not greasy, and the portion was huge! 5 stars. $6, they also have a half portion for $3.95. We've always ordered the full portion. Next came the crispy won tons (crisped to perfection, not greasy, and ample dipping sauce), made with very fresh shrimp. 5 stars. A must have every time. At $8.95, *cheaper* than most food court ones, with better ingredients and a larger portion. The Thai style fried rice which included a poached egg with a nice runny yolk when I shredded the egg through the rice. One of the best Chinese fried rices we've ever had. 5 stars. Finally their signature sweet & sour pork (all meat, no bone, fat or inedible tendon). While very good, wasnt as elevated as the others. 4 stars The dishes all arrived quickly, weren't greasy, and best of all, the bill at the end was only $40. The single most expensive, and ironicaly least mind blowing dish was the sweet & sour pork (pork was very high quality meats, but I expected a more intense flavour, given that it was a signature dish. Still very good, though) This is definitely going into the rotation. Oh, and they actually accept debit cards (many local Chinese restaurants are cash only). *And* we actually had leftovers! Subsequent visits: Changed the black pepper beef noodle to crispy noodles; very high quality ingredients, but wish the black pepper flavour were more intense. However, it was one of the best beef chow mein I've ever had; just not much black pepper flavour. 4.25 stars. Thick satay beef noodle is very standard, again fresh ingredients but wish the flavour were more intense. 3.75 stars. On our 2nd visit we tried the honey garlic spareribs instead of sweet and sour pork. Even more flavourful. 4.25 stars. Our most recent visit, we ordered stir fried fish with vegetables. The brocolli was *excellent*, and the fish, while subtly flavoured, was again fresh and well cooked, hitting that sweet spot between undercooked and overcooked. 4.25 stars. Overall: 4.5/5 stars 8.9/10 Each time, the food has arrived quickly, and the service was good. Note that as per usual with casual Asian restaurants, you may have to share a table (with strangers) when it's busy. This is normal. Recommended: cripsy won tons, Thai style fried rice, chinese fried donut in rice noodles, (these first 3 are must haves for your first visit) black pepper beef chow mein (off menu; ask them to change the black pepper beef udon to chow meins), honey garlic spareribs, stir fried fish with vegetables (broccoli). Avoid: *nothing* so far, but the sweet and sour pork and the thick satay beef rice noodles were very standard (non-oily with fresh ingredients, but nothing extraordinary). Likewise the HK style iced tea is good, but a little too "tea-y" for my taste. Located at unit 128, 4600 No 3 Rd, Richmond, BC V6X 4E4 read more

The Congee blew my mind. I'm so glad Chef Tony's was full and we ate here instead. You can see the guys cooking fresh Youtiao (chinese donut) in the deep fryer nonstop. I'm a bit of a Congee connoisseur and I have to really give it to the Chinese Canadians. The congee they make is heads and shoulders above what we get in the states. Vancity and GTA representin! They stay true to the traditional non shortcut cooking methods of Hong Kong. The congee is silky smooth and it does not separate into a watery mess after it cools down. Even more impressive is that even the leftovers we put in the fridge did not turn watery when we reheated it the next morning. read more

This was the first place that I visited that served Wonton Soup during my time in Vancouver for my trip and it was a good restaurant! I visited this restaurant yesterday at 7:15 P.M. and the ambience was pretty standard for your average Chinese restaurant. Also, the service was really good when I was ordering and I was swiftly seated when I entered the restaurant. They are attentive to their customers due to the fact that they check on you regularly to see if you need any refills. Furthermore, the food I ordered arrived pretty fast, only taking ten minutes to make an appearance. The first thing that I ordered was the Chinese Donut which had a perfect level of sweetness, an outside that was very crunchy, and an inside that was really soft. The next thing that I ordered was the Tong Choy that was seasoned with garlic which was cooked well and had a nice texture. Also, the garlic flavor of the vegetable was not too overwhelming, having the perfect amount of flavor. The third thing that I ordered was the Wonton Soup with Yu Choy and Rice Noodle which had a soup that was seasoned perfectly. Also, the Yu Choy was seasoned well, cooked well, and had a good texture. Furthermore, the Wonton had a good texture and a wrapper that was not too thick or thin. Last, the Rice Noodle was seasoned to perfection and had a good texture. Overall, I was really impressed by this restaurant and I would definitely recommend this place to anyone who wants to eat a good Wonton Soup! read more
